RE: XSLT FAQ? and really questions

Hey Dan,

	This is a really great example. It's exactly what I want to do. I am have a
little trouble seperating out the dynamically generating element names and
how the IDs get grouped together. I didn't intend on dynamically generating
the IDs. I had assumed they were fixed. Could you clarify this for me?

	XSLT definately has a steep learning curve.

Jeremy
